Milestones in Virology

Virology

This volume of the Handbook of Behavioral Neurobiology contains a wealth of information on the neural control of movement. Overall, the approach of the authors is to stress basic experimental data. Therefore, the book will be an excellent reference source for basic scientists as well as clinicians. The first chapters of the book examine the role of muscle in movement. These chapters discuss rec...

Advances in Tumor Virology

Transfer factor (TF) is a lymphocyte extract of low molecular weight capable of transferring antigen-specific information to T-lymphocytes. A number of reports have documented its efficacy in the control of acute viral infections, particularly those associated with herpes viruses. There have been also several reports of clinical trials utilizing Epstein-Barr Virus-specific TF in associated mali...

Perspectives in Virology

As the name implies, this book attempts to give a broad picture of new developments in the field of virology, and in this it succeeds admirably. The volume represents the proceedings of a symposium, dedicated to the late Dr. F. R. Beaudette, an outstanding virologist in the field of animal virus diseases. A representative sample of new discoveries and new problems in virology-in the basic scien...
